Dr. Michael Poulos

As the backbone of the practice, and with a great sense of humor, Dr. Michael has built a reputation of trust with his patients. Before moving to Denver in 1980, Dr. Poulos received a Bachelor of Science in Zoology and Biochemistry from Syracuse University. He then went on to the University of Pennsylvania School of Dentistry, where he earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine.

After two years practicing as a General Dentist, he entered Northwestern University where he received his Master of Science in Biomaterials as well as his certificate in Clinical Periodontics and Surgery.

Over the years, he has worked hard to be a leader in his field, lecturing nationally and locally on the practice of Periodontics and Implant Dentistry. He also works in conjunction with leading companies in the Dental Implant field, researching new technologies that will continue to improve the dental profession as well as the lives of his patients.

When Dr. Poulos joined his Denver practice in 1980, he became part of the country's oldest and most-respected Periodontal practices. He has been happily serving patients at this practice ever since.

Dr. Somers not only fixed my gum problems and improved the look of my smile, she also changed how I view trips to the dentist.
